Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 973
A meaningful smile crossed Maurice’s face. “I heard Team Clifton is close to succeeding in developing Purdue Microchip.”
Liam’s eyes narrowed and he sighed deeply. ‘Sure
enough…’
Charlie had brought up this matter to Liam a few times, but Liam did not expect that Maurice would show up in person this time. Even Mason…
Liam’s gaze revealed mixed feelings. He used to think that Mason was an elegant person who merely devoted his attention to art without being concerned about what was going on in the outside world. He used to believe that Mason exposed Shaun’s mental illness three years ago merely for the sake of the Campos family.
By the look of things now, however, Liam felt that his father was far from simple.
“ Second Uncle, I’ve told Charlie before that Shaun doesn’t allow me to be involved in the matters regarding the laboratory, ” Liam explained in a low voice.
“That was before,” Charlie said with a smile, “Now, it’s different since Shaun isn’t in Australia. Once the product is developed, all kinds of advertisements need to be underway. As the general manager of Hill Corporation, you’re to approve the formalities. As such, you can easily obtain information about the microchip.”
Liam took the coffee cup. He lowered his head and lightly sipped on it. His actions hid the glint in his eyes.
To be frank, he was very disappointed in the Campos family.
Overlooking the fact that the Campos family had been treating him as an outsider these days, they were being too greedy. As the second most influential family in Australia, the Camposes had been trying to find a way to steal the product that someone else had spent a great deal of money and effort on rather than improve their company’s products with their own abilities. How shameful their behavior was!
Of course, Liam admitted that he was not a noble person either. In the past, he had used underhand means to secure his position in Hill Corporation. Even so, he had his limits.
After realizing that Liam was not uttering a word, Maurice said softly, “Liam, your last name might be Hill, but your dad’s last name is Campos. You’re a member of the Campos family. It’s just a matter of the last name. After all, the Hills are considered outsiders. Think about how the Hill family has been treating you these years. Shaun got everything even though you’re Lea’s son as well. 1
